There were so many people that didn’t hold the police accountable...at all.

It’s incredibly sad how people like that can’t admit that both are at fault.
Word.
This lady suffered this torment for longer than many of us have been alive, and the caucasian demons who terrorized her are long gone and hopefully burning in their deserved hell. She spoke up when her family could have easily been murdered by these savages. To me, this defines a hero during a time when Black women…
Narcissism....I grew up with a few and dated a few. There is no explaining the crazy behavior. They are toxic, dangerous and hard to break free from.
If you study up on narcissism (the personality disorder one, not the cutesy name for someone who is egotistical one), you start to understand a little.
Mentally ill for sure, but the U.S. has the worst mental treatment medicine in the civilized world.
Agree with all that, how vets are used and forgotten, used and forgotten, but lots of people contribute and nobody at the tail end of life should worry about homelessness, or being relegated to abusive, state run, old folks homes, where they live 4 to a room, always somebody dying, somebody moaning, somebody vomiting,…
so brilliantly summed up..
For your well being, it’s good that she’s an ex-friend. I hope she can find peace.
I definitely agree with this, a lot will have to come from within. Raising confident black daughters, and raising sons to appreciate their own AND their sisters’ blackness.
I think to the extent that men in the community are going to even be willing to participate in the discussion, we’re going to have to wade through some “nuh-UH” muck of the type you just received in that reply and that anyone who tried to stay in community conversation with Sigma_93 around the sexual harassment issue…
What you reference in your last sentence - I’ve tried to have that exact same conversation, and I’ve tried more than once. I just stopped trying because I don’t believe in trying to have conversations when all you’re getting is shouted down, beat up or stonewalled, particularly by other women in one’s own community.…
It sounds like your ex friend needs to hash her issues out with a therapist who is sensitive to issues of colorism and how it shaped your ex friend’s lack of self esteem. As a light skinned black woman, all I can do is listen more than I speak when darker skinned women share their pain and speak up when I see someone…
If I may...
I hear your frustration, and think that’s a question that might actually yield some constructive answers beyond the obvious, which is that of course you can’t change your skin color. No one can. Nor should you be ashamed of what you can’t change—this is not your credit score, or your weight.
That said, I do think…
Honey, I think it has something to do with the concept of desiring a member of the “outlier”. There’s something delightful and entertaining in pursuing the people, who aren’t a part of the same lifestyle. For men, I think it’s almost like wanting the virgins... Well, the notion that the virgin wields.
“Why can’t dudes just be real and quit playing games. If you just want to openly date...just date women who feel the same way as you. Simple”
Thank you! Just be freaking honest so I can opt out if I want to! Like you said, it’s mad women who want casual situations. Go find one and stop wasting my time!
